Is there such a thing as a single speed powerlink? My powers of google are failing me today, I just get pages with single speed chains and 8/9/10 speed chains with powerlinks.

Just use a normal 9 speed chain and a normal SRAM link.

I've got a PC1 at the minute and 1/8th chainring and sprocket, so 9 speed 'aint going to cut it!

I use [url= http://www.mailorderbikes.com/m5b591s210p2301/RALEIGH_Single_Speed_1_8%5C_inch_Missing_Link_Pair/RS_GB ]this [/url] type of link for connecting my single speed chains. Use a flat headed screwdriver to pop it open again, never had any issues with them.

You can get an old fashioned splt link. That would work.

Perhaps he's using a 1/8th chainring so a 9spd chain won't work.

Have a look on [url= http://www.sjscycles.co.uk/chains-spares-dept712_pg1/#page=2&page=2 ]This page for sjs cycles[/url], there's a few options for 1/8th chains and they're decent folk to deal with.

edit : Doh!...late to the party yet again.......

9 spd chain and SRAM link is the easiest
